Sarr (hamstring) is out for Tuesday's game against the Pistons.

Sarr will end up sitting out both legs of this back-to-back set. With how the Wizards have handled the minutes and maintenance days of their key players, fantasy managers should prepare for more headaches down the stretch. Tristan Vukcevic, Anthony Gill and Julian Reese could see a bump in involvement Tuesday.

Spurs head coach Mitch Johnson said Monday that he's optimistic Kornet (knee) will be available for Tuesday's game in Sacramento, Tom Orsborn of the San Antonio Express-News reports.

Along with Kornet, Johnson also expressed confidence that guard Dylan Harper (calf) would be available Tuesday, which would bring the San Antonio rotation back to full strength. While Kornet was sidelined for Monday's 119-115 win over the Clippers due to a sore right knee, Carter Bryant (21 minutes) saw a slightly heightened role, and Mason Plumlee (six minutes) was added to the rotation as a backup option behind Victor Wembanyama.

Robinson (back) is questionable for Tuesday's game against Indiana.

Robinson was a very late addition to the injury report. Considering the opponent, the Knicks may opt to proceed with caution. Ariel Hukporti could soak up some backup center minutes if Robinson is held out.

Jackson supplied 11 points (4-5 FG, 3-4 FT), one rebound, one block and one steal in 17 minutes during Monday's 119-115 loss to the Spurs.

Jackson turned some heads in limited minutes Monday, perhaps giving the coaching staff something to think about. Brook Lopez has been solid for the most part as Los Angeles' starting center, but he posted a major dud in 24 minutes Monday. Keep an eye on Jackson in case he builds on this momentum.

Lopez racked up three points (1-2 FG, 1-1 3Pt), one rebound, one assist, two blocks and one steal in 24 minutes during Monday's 119-115 loss to the Spurs.

This was a major dud for Lopez, but he's been solid enough to warrant another chance from his fantasy managers. Over his last eight games, he's producing ninth-round value in nine-category formats with averages of 10.0 points, 3.1 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 1.4 blocks and 1.4 three-pointers.

Capela closed with nine points (3-4 FG, 3-5 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and one steal across 26 minutes during Monday's 100-92 loss to the Lakers.

Alperen Sengun (back) sat this contest out, allowing Capela to grab a fill-in start at center. Capela has been used sparingly by the Rockets this season. However, if Sengun continues to miss time, Capela will be a viable streaming option for rebounds, defensive stats and field-goal percentage.

Missi recorded four points (1-4 FG, 2-4 FT), 10 rebounds, five assists and five blocks across 28 minutes during Monday's 129-111 victory over the Mavericks.

Missi moved into the starting lineup, with Dejounte Murray ruled out due to illness. Rather than replace Murray, the coaching staff decided to shuffle the rotation, allowing Missi to slide into the starting center role. Rewarding anyone who took a chance on him, Missi turned in a solid performance, including a season-high five blocks. While Missi is a name to monitor, recent games would suggest that he is nothing more than a streaming consideration on most nights.

Claxton ended with 12 points (5-11 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-4 FT), 11 rebounds, two blocks and one assist over 20 minutes in Monday's 114-95 loss to the Trail Blazers.

Claxton snapped a four-game stretch of single-digit scoring with a 12-point performance while recording his first double-double since Feb. 9. The big man is now up to 11 double-doubles this season, though nine of those came before the calendar flipped to 2026. After averaging 9.9 rebounds during the 2023-24 campaign, Claxton's production on the glass has dipped over the past two seasons, as he entered Monday averaging 7.1 rebounds across 60 appearances.

Clingan accumulated 14 points (4-7 FG, 6-8 FT), 11 rebounds and two assists across 24 minutes during Monday's 114-95 victory over the Nets.

Clingan was productive as both a scorer and rebounder, tallying his 29th double-double of the campaign in Monday's win. The 22-year-old has been tenacious on the offensive glass of late, grabbing five offensive rebounds in each of his past three outings. Through eight March appearances, Clingan has already recorded six double-doubles.

Landale supplied eight points (3-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound and two assists in 11 minutes during Monday's 124-112 win over Orlando.

Landale was subdued once again, having now scored double digits only once in the past six games. During that time, he has averaged just 6.2 points and 2.3 rebounds in 15.3 minutes per game, despite serving as the primary backup behind Onyeka Okongwu. For those in standard formats, Landale should not even be on the radar at this point.
